Forest Clay Product, Safety and Wellness Disclaimer
Last updated: July 2026
The information provided by Forest Clay through its website, product pages, packaging, advertisements, social-media accounts, articles, emails, and other communications is intended solely for general educational, informational, cosmetic, aromatic, and wellness purposes.
Not Medical Advice
Forest Clay products and the information associated with them are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent or mitigate any disease, medical condition or health disorder. Nothing published or communicated by Forest Clay should be interpreted as medical advice, a medical diagnosis, a prescription or a substitute for consultation with a qualified healthcare professional.
Descriptions of traditional uses, aromatic properties, cosmetic applications or general wellness benefits are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute a representation or guarantee that a product will produce any particular medical, physical, emotional or therapeutic result.
Individual experiences and results may vary.
Essential-Oil Safety
Essential oils are highly concentrated botanical substances and must be used carefully. Always read the complete product label, ingredients, warnings, and directions before use.
Unless the product label expressly states otherwise:
-
Forest Clay essential oils are intended for external or aromatic use only.
-
Do not swallow or otherwise use essential oils internally.
-
Do not apply undiluted essential oils directly to the skin unless the product directions specifically permit such use.
-
Dilute essential oils appropriately in a suitable carrier oil before topical application.
-
Conduct a small patch test before broader topical use.
-
Avoid contact with the eyes, inner ears, mouth, mucous membranes, broken skin and other sensitive areas.
-
Do not insert essential oils into the nose, ears or other body cavities.
-
Use essential oils in a well-ventilated area and follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using a diffuser or other aromatic device.
-
Observe any sunlight or ultraviolet-exposure precautions stated for citrus or other potentially photosensitizing oils.
-
Discontinue use immediately if irritation, redness, discomfort, breathing difficulty, dizziness, nausea or any other adverse reaction occurs.
Seek prompt medical assistance in the event of accidental ingestion, significant exposure, serious irritation or any unexpected reaction.
Pregnancy, Medical Conditions and Medications
Consult a qualified doctor, pharmacist or appropriately trained healthcare professional before using essential oils or other concentrated botanical products if you:
-
are pregnant, attempting to become pregnant or breastfeeding;
-
have allergies, asthma, epilepsy, respiratory sensitivity, a skin disorder or another medical condition;
-
are receiving medical treatment or taking prescription or non-prescription medication; or
-
are scheduled for surgery or another medical procedure.
Do not use Forest Clay products as a replacement for prescribed medication, professional medical treatment or emergency medical care.
Children and Vulnerable Individuals
Keep all Forest Clay products out of the reach of children. Essential oils and fragranced products should be used around babies, children, older adults and individuals with health sensitivities only under appropriate adult supervision and, where necessary, after obtaining professional guidance.
Products intended exclusively for adults should not be used on children.
Pets and Animals
Essential oils may not be appropriate for every animal species. Do not apply Forest Clay essential oils directly to an animal, add them to an animal’s food or water, or use them in a confined area around an animal without first consulting a qualified veterinarian.
When diffusing around pets, provide adequate ventilation and allow the animal to leave the area freely. Stop use if the animal shows any unusual behavior or signs of discomfort.
Allergies and Sensitivities
Natural ingredients can cause allergic reactions or sensitivities in some individuals. The words “natural,” “pure,” “botanical,” or similar descriptions do not mean that a product is risk-free or suitable for everyone.
Customers are responsible for reviewing the complete ingredient list and determining whether a product is appropriate for their individual circumstances. Anyone with known allergies or highly sensitive skin should obtain professional advice before use.
Product-Specific Directions
Different Forest Clay products may have different intended uses, dilution requirements, precautions and restrictions. General information appearing elsewhere on the Forest Clay website must not be used to override the directions or warnings printed on a particular product.
Always follow the instructions supplied with the specific product being used. Do not use a product for a purpose that is inconsistent with its label or directions.
Natural Product Variations
Because many Forest Clay products contain naturally derived ingredients, variations may occur between batches. Color, aroma, texture, viscosity, clarity and other natural characteristics may differ depending on the botanical source, harvest, season, geographical origin and production process.
Such natural variations do not necessarily indicate that a product is defective or has changed in quality.
Product photographs and packaging images are provided for general representation. Actual color, appearance, label design, bottle, cap, outer packaging or other presentation details may vary because of photography, display settings, product improvements or packaging updates.
Storage and Handling
Store Forest Clay products securely, with their caps properly closed, away from children, pets, excessive heat, flames, direct sunlight and moisture. Follow any additional storage instructions stated on the label.
Do not use a product after its stated expiry or recommended use-by period. Do not use a product if its seal was expected to be intact but was damaged when received, or if the product appears contaminated or improperly stored.
Essential oils and fragranced products may affect painted, polished, plastic, fabric or other sensitive surfaces. Avoid direct contact with valuable surfaces and clean accidental spills promptly.
Website and Educational Content
Information concerning ingredients, botanical traditions, aromatherapy, skincare, haircare, household use or general wellness is provided in good faith from sources Forest Clay considers relevant. However, information may be incomplete, may change over time and may not apply to every person or situation.
Forest Clay does not warrant that all website content will always be error-free, complete or suitable for a customer’s individual requirements. Customers should independently verify information that may affect their health, safety or purchasing decisions.

Product classifications, permitted claims, labeling requirements and usage restrictions may differ between countries and regions. Availability of a Forest Clay product in a particular location does not mean that every use described in general educational material is authorized in that jurisdiction.
